Brief description of study

How you spend your time shapes your health.  That is why the Indiana University School of Nursing is doing a study to get feedback on a new questionnaire that asks about the physical, social, and thinking activities you enjoy in your free time.

Our goal is to understand how much effort these activities take and how they may support healthy aging. Your input can help guide future healthy aging research. 

The study consists of one 60-90-minute online interview.  No travel or in-person visits are required.

Detailed description of study

If you join the study, you will take part in one online interview that will last about 60–90 minutes. The interview will be done through a secure Zoom video call with a member of our study team. The interview will be audio and video recorded.

At the beginning, we’ll ask a few questions about your background (such as age, gender, income, and marital status) and some questions about your memory and thinking.

After that, you’ll be asked about questions from a new survey that looks at activities people do in their daily lives. We’ll ask you things like:

  • What are your thoughts as you answer this question?
  • How sure are you of your answer?
  • How did you decide on your answer?
  • What does this activity mean to you?

As a thank you for your time, you will receive a $75 gift card of your choice to either Amazon or Walmart.
